Tuesday Tip: Store Fresh Herbs

  1. Once you get your herbs home, wash them and pat them dry with a paper towel. You can also place them in a salad spinner to completely remove any water on the leaves.
  2. Get a large mason jar and fill 1/4 of the glass with lukewarm water.
  3. Cut a bit of the stalk off of each herb and place herbs in the jar.
  4. Take a large plastic bag and place over the herbs in the jar.
  5. Place jars in the refrigerator, change the water daily, and they will keep for 2-3 weeks.
